Abstract

Health services play an important role in the overall development of any region; gathering basic information is the primary step in making the proper decision in the developmental activities of the study area. For planning at the micro level, a village is considered a viable micro-administrative unit. For the data primary survey was done in all forty-four villages and the Kharkhoda municipal committee in 2019. A detailed Global Positioning System Survey has been done of various health services and presented through maps. The deficiency of various utility services has been calculated based on norms given by the government schemes. The present paper focuses on the status of health services in the Kharkhoda block of Sonipat district in Haryana and highlights the areas of deficiency in health services.  The paper concludes that the study area is deficient in public health centres, public health sub-centres, AYUSH centres and Anganwari centres and the status of health services in the area is not according to the various norms defined by the government of India.
